Dakhla
La Dune Blanche is a magical place located about thirty kilometers north of the city of Dakhla. This huge white sand dune plunges directly into the turquoise lagoon, creating an unreal landscape. It is a kitesurfing spot among the most spectacular in Morocco, both wild, silent, and strikingly beautiful. Accessible only by 4x4 or downwind from the main lagoon, it offers a timeless experience: riding in translucent turquoise water, surrounded by desert as far as the eye can see, is simply unforgettable. It is a must-stop for any rider in search of freedom and authenticity.

Location
Detailed information
The La Dune Blanche spot is best discovered at high tide, when the lagoon extends around the sandbank. The water surface is then flat to slightly choppy, perfect for freeride and cruising. The wind, coming from the northeast, blows side-onshore and remains very consistent. The shallow water and sandy bottom make navigation accessible, but the isolation of the place requires a certain level of autonomy. It is the perfect playground for downwinds and long sessions in a postcard-like setting. At low tide, the spot almost completely empties and becomes impractical.
